Recommended to nineteenth-century readers as a 'neat little volume', Charles H. Eden's 1879 account of Siberia combines the conventions of a gazetteer with accounts of flora and fauna, 'native races', 'trade and manufactures' and 'recent explorations'. It should fascinate geologists, geographers, and historians of anthropology in equal measure.
